You will always be able to find the sharelink button on the top right of the page next to your profile picture.

This page contains information about the following topics:

If you are on the main page before entering a project the sharelink button will be grayed out. It is only possible to share pages from within a project.

Notifying users

Ever wanted to notify a project member about a document, some issues or other content in Catenda Hub, without leaving Catenda Hub? Or maybe users have switched off their Catenda Hub notifications?

This feature solves these problems.

ShareLink sends an email from Catenda Hub to the project members you choose with a link to the content you want to share.

Note: Users will always get a notification about a link that is shared with them this way. Even if they have their notifications turned off.

To use ShareLink:

  1. First select up to 100 items of content you want to share.

    For example some documents or issues.

    The sharelink recipient(s) will then only see these items.
    If you just share the page the sharelink recipient(s) will see the whole page.

  2. Click the the ShareLink button.
